BEACH CITY

The village is under a boil water advisory through 4 p.m. Tuesday because of repairs to a broken water main.

The Environmental Protection Agency requires a boil alert be issued, according to a release from the village. Water is being pulled from the water tower. The boil alert continues through Tuesday because even after the break is repaired, the EPA will be testing the water.

Last week, the village issued a three-day boil water advisory for a different water main break. This affects more than 1,000 residents.
